Simon B. StøvringFirst sneak peek of Runestone for Vision Pro 😃 👀
As soon as I realized that I could put the entire Find & Replace UI in an ornament, the interactions clicked for me and I started working towards this. I’m SO EXCITED to see if this feels good on actual hardware 😃 👀🤞
Vincent Friedrich@simonbs This is why I feel so excited about this new platform. New possibilities that you may not think of at first sight, but that start clicking once you‘re making your first experiences with it.
Just spent a bit of time making sure Runestone supports multiple windows on the Vision Pro 😃
It's unclear to me what the best practices are for opening multiple windows in a document-based app on the Vision Pro but this approach seems to work well. Users can open multiple document browser. Opening a document replaces the document browser and closing the document returns to the document browser.
Very happy to discover that I can resize ornaments when the associated view is resized. I think this works great for Runestone’s search ornament 😃

Gustavo Medori@simonbs this is the approach swift playgrounds takes and I think it's largely reasonable.
Till Konitzer@simonbs But then there could be two document browsers open at the same time?
@knutknatter Yes. I don't think that's much different than having two Finder windows open at the same time on a Mac.
@simonbs that’s true. I was always thinking about mimicking the open window behaviour from macOS in document-based apps (command+O). It only allows one open window. For example, opening a document always opens in a new scene, the document browser scene is closed. Observe when all scenes closed and create doc browser scene. Not sure if this is more user friendly however.
@knutknatter I considered going that route but I can’t seem to make visionOS bring an existing scene to the foreground. Initializing an instance of UISceneSessionActivationRequest and using it to request scene activation does nothing. So if a document browser is already open, I choose open another one instead of doing nothing.
I’m also not sure if we should programmatically open new scenes on visionOS when the last scene is destroyed. I don’t think year will expect that.
CJ Gaspari@simonbs this looks very natural and exactly as I’d expect without thinking
Matt Clarke@simonbs this is super cool and could maybe used as a basis for a Halloween gag - have your buggy code literally follow you around everywhere you go
David Smith@simonbs This is looking soooo good. I love what you are doing here.
@_Davidsmith Thanks David! 🙏
Daniel 🏳️🌈 Jilg 
@simonbs amazing 🤩
Anthony Allison
duclearc@simonbs this will be my coding setup someday! 🤞😍
John Davis@simonbs nice use of a custom ornament!
Tom Fagerland@simonbs man, if I could use this on a train I would perhaps bother going to the office more.
Steve Shepard@simonbs Do you have a sense of how accurate the typing gestures are?
@steveshepard Not at all. Hoping to get a sense of that during a lab or with a Developer Kit.
metallicxsquink@simonbs Absolutely incredible!! Very excited for Runestone on Vision Pro!
